On-chain reading — wallet flow for OTM:

• Claimant-to-platform deposit transactions on the deposit chain used by OTM.
• Operator-controlled forwarding wallets where deposits consolidate ahead of laundering or off-ramping.
• Cross-chain bridge events to chains with deeper exchange liquidity.
• Privacy-service interactions, where present in the trail.
• Off-ramp wallet — the named centralised-exchange endpoint.

From the lectern — off-ramp identification:

• Endpoint counterparty in the OTM casefile is named — typically a major venue such as OKX or Bybit, sometimes Gate.io or KuCoin, occasionally Binance or Huobi when liquidity allows.
• OTM’s off-ramp wallet is then matched against compliance feeds the Professor maintains a standing read on.
• Leverage is applied to that named counterparty — the OTM packet is assembled to a standard the off-ramp’s compliance desk reads and acts on.
• If the OTM off-ramp is non-cooperative, the casefile escalates to IC3, the relevant state AG, and (where dollar value warrants) a civil-discovery overlay for KYC.

Recovery pathway — how this casefile moves toward filing:

1. Triage on OTM — submission read against a no-go checklist, written go/no-go returned to the claimant inside one business day.
2. Trace on OTM — deposit pathway mapped across chains, captured with chain-of-custody hashes.
3. Identify on OTM — off-ramp endpoint matched to a named exchange counterparty.
4. File the OTM packet — IC3, state AG (where loss meets state thresholds), off-ramp compliance desk, and civil-discovery overlay where dollar value supports it.
5. Follow-through on OTM — the Professor stays on the casefile until a documented next step exists.

What the casefile records — chains and counterparties:

• Chains the Professor reads for OTM casefiles — BTC, ETH, Tron USDT, BNB Smart Chain, Avalanche, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, plus the cross-chain bridges that link them.
• Off-ramps named in OTM — major centralised venues with compliance desks that accept regulator-grade packets.
• Filing pathways available on OTM — IC3 for US claimants, state AG offices, off-ramp compliance, and civil-discovery overlay for high-value loss.
